as a newly wedded couple with no relations living with you, it's more than enough.. she can save like #30k from it.

jaeyking:
Hmm, 50k when managed well might do wonders.
But considering the cost of food items, I would advice they buy food in bulk,

Like bag of rice, carton of Spag and co.

Then we can start talking if 50k will be enough.

Remember location also matters

Myside here.
50k is more than enough for food upkeep in a month
#farmingISourPRIDE

Obakashdee:
50k for wetin, won’t she spend also? Won’t she buy things and also save, is she working? Please 50k is too smal, let him make it 100k abeg

bigpicture001:


My bro buyz the rice, oil garri ,yam, etc in bulk even bread daily...

Honestly am scared of marriage expenses if it's this costly to manage a home

jaeyking:


That's y I say, it depends on the location.
Myside a bread of 150 can do both..

It's more of a rural to developing region

Drop this sanctimonious act abegi, this is how you will be giving unverified advice as if you've tasted marriage before to know what goes on in there person tell her husband say money no reach, you dey yarn dust. Are you her or is the woman your younger sis? All these pretence no go change anything, man wey go marry you here go still marry you so drop the act.

Have you been to the market lately to know what is really going on, goods worth of 50k wouldn't fill up mini shopping bag unlike before when things are cheap and it's even more difficult seeing that she is expecting. A pregnant woman has cravings and she mustn't depend on her husband to get her those things when she can easily dip her hands into the monthly upkeep to get them, make you no dey yarn opata for here jare.

Obakashdee:

50k is too small then.

An expectant mother can see a fine unisex clothes or shoes that she admires and would like to get it for her baby, are you expecting her to wait for her husband to get back from work before she can get it? Wait till you enter your home, then come back and tell us how you run it with 5naira. Save 30k for this Buhari period where person no fit cook pot of soup with 2k again, we hear you ma! Ala koba!

You're gradually releasing the truth. First you said it's only the two of them. Now you said the 14yr old brother is staying with them.

Anyways, the Money is not small but it's not that big considering the current
Inflation in the economy.

Now, by the time she'll buy other house hold items like soaps for laundary, bathing and some other condinments which may only last two weeks within the month, the money would have been exhausted.

Don't also forget her condition. pregnancy cravings and satifying them requires money which will still come from the same 50k.

I think your brother should consider her and add something to it. Naira no longer has value.

She brought in the small boy when we be came obviously too heavy . He is their last male sibling...

Jman06:
That 50k is some people's salary in this same country and they make do with it for food and other expenses, yet the lady in this post can't manage 50k just for food ingredients.

She is a greedy asz lady who probably want to start sending his hard earned money to her parents.
